I agree 100%. It’s probably due to a well known idiopathic disease called “Grass-is-Greener”. There is no known cure.
Next Years Lineup

- Start date
I think that’s part of it but it’s also how we’re recruiting. We have seemingly backed off on some very interested studs at the weight. That at least partially points to us liking what we have.
This. I honestly thought BT was going to be the first out the door, whether by choice or not. Instead - he's embraced being a true part of the team.
I like what DT did. He didn't employ the same/usual tactics that the typical scorched-earth coaches use when implementing a new culture. He set the expectations - but he's been willing to work with all of the kids and not just kick them to the curb after the first strike. Jordan Williams for instance - he was on the Gilman plan. Gilman spent A LOT of time with him off the mat, mentoring him and spending time with him - all in an effort to get the young man to reach his potential.
Pat is saying in Iowa rivals board that Iowa has legit chance to land Jax. Dont like it. Thats why I never take early favorites seriously in college.
Edit: Its Willie, not Pat

Since I don’t like what Pat’s saying I’m going back to believing he doesn’t know what he’s talking about.
It's not wrong just because of the environment the sport is in.
Is it short-sighted if Jax does take the deal, yes. Can you blame him, no.
OSU is the right spot for him in every category besides one, a BIG pay day. That is literally the only thing that Iowa can offer him at this time.
Pat or Willie? I saw willie switched course and said they have a great shot with Jax now.
Do you see PSU in my post at all? I’m talking about Iowa versus OSU.
PSU is also a more attractive spot long term when compared to Iowa.
You said OSU is the right spot for him? What makes it the right spot, it’s not just OSU vs. Iowa for Jax.
Iowa v OSU seemed implied. No need to start a tertiary argument.
I think you guys are forgetting the most important and compelling argument for Jax coming to OSU. Which is that I would really like it if he did.
It was completely in reference to the discussion that Iowa is in the picture.
The topic being discussed is Iowa vs. OSU. OSU is the right spot for him if he has other goals besides money. PSU is also a spot that has more upside for him than Iowa…and I said as much.
